January 6: the bombs that weren't?
American Thinker ^ | 24 Jan, 2024 | Mike McDaniel

What’s certain is the Capital Police and Secret Service didn’t do the bare basics required in response to a bomb threat, to say nothing about a confirmed explosive device.

SNIP

This is ironic in that Carlson was fired by Fox News for daring to air January 6 video that obviously contradicted The Narrative. Founding his own network, Carlson has the opportunity to air even more video. Widburg wrote:

The video footage, shot on January 6 by a camera installed across the street from the pertinent events, shows two SUVs parked right next to the DNC bench near which one of the pipe bombs was found. One SUV belongs to the D.C. cops, and one to the Secret Service. According to Beattie, they were working jointly on security that day.

In the video, we see a man wearing a backpack appear on the lower right side of the screen. Walking at a leisurely pace, he approaches the D.C. police, leans into the driver’s side window, and talks to someone. This is the moment, says Beattie, when he informed the police that he’d seen a pipe bomb. By the way, as this Blaze video shows, that man with the backpack was almost certainly a Capitol police officer:

Backpack Guy leisurely strolls off-camera, and the Capitol Police and Secret Service remain in their vehicles. Then:

Instead, a minute or so goes by while nothing happens. Then, police officers and Secret Service agents emerge at a leisurely pace from the SUVs and kind of stand around. A group of school children walks within feet of what law enforcement has been told is a pipe bomb, and the officers and agents do nothing at all. One of them eventually walks over and takes a photo of the pipe...

The FBI has a hard time making their hoaxes look real.

Law enforcement was suspiciously incurious about the alleged pipe bomb when it was found - and the gaslight media has been suspiciously incurious about both the pipe bomb story and about law enforcement’s incuriousity.

Dan Bongino has been like a dog on a bone on this issue.

"Revolver" website folks are also mining more and more bits and pieces.... especially the very coincidental timeline, timing with Ray Epps, and odd timing of the discovery of items placed 16-17 hours after they were placed.

Why was VP-elect Carmella at the DNC minutes before the 1pm start of the vote count by Pence?

Why was her location kept secret for so long?

The video footage, shot on January 6 by a camera installed across the street from the pertinent events....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’ve been trying to figure out what camera this is, where was the camera located, who owned it etc. It doesn’t seem that this should be part of the release of video by Speaker Johnston because the angle of how the footage was taken doesn’t seem to relate to a federal building. However, it seemed to show up at the same time the other footage was released. Has anybody got that basic issue figured out?

My guess is that SOP for major crimes is for the cops/feds to go to surrounding homes and businesses to ask for any security footage they might have.

There’s a good representation of this in “Patriots Day (2016)” about the Boston Marathon bombing. Which is a pretty good movie for those who haven’t seen it,

So what happened here, the police didn't believe the guy? Why so leisurely?

Ok, so what I did was get a streetview that matched the picture above in this article. Then I rotated the view exactly 180 degrees to see where the camera view is coming from. You will see it is coming from the direction of the Fairchild building which is beyond the corner of the fence and the parking lot on the other side of it.

However, now that I’ve looked at it, I suspect that a better guess is a camera that is on the post just above the red light... This is on a post that also has the street name shown...Washington Ave SW.

Basically, what I was wondering is “who could have supplied this footage?”
